 YouTube has new mid-roll ads that they will enable by default on all of your videos that don't already have mid-rolls on June 27th unless you tell YouTube you don't want it. I just discovered this guys, I didn't know this was happening, but you have to choose manually I will individually review and enable mid-rolls because by default YouTube is choosing this option for you that will take effect on June 27th. You can find this in your monetization page of your YouTube studio then you have to click this actions button and then open preferences and then you'll get to see this well hidden setting. What are mid-rolls? Mid-rolls traditionally have only been available for videos longer than 10 minutes starting July 27th, videos of 8 minutes or longer length will now be eligible and the bad thing is YouTube is auto-enabling mid-rolls for everybody by default which I would think the default should be let me choose my own mid-rolls, not do it for me before you go automatically turn off this mid-roll setting I know that YouTube states studies indicate that automatically placed mid-roll ads are two times less interruptive than manually placed mid-roll ads. What they're saying is their machine learning algorithm will do a much better job than you by manually placing mid-rolls so that it'll be less interruptive for the end user. I don't know if that's true, if you think it's true then I encourage you to let YouTube place automatic mid-rolls in all of your videos, but I would be doubtful. For me personally, these videos are educational. I don't want a commercial break happening in the middle of my video so I'm going to disable by choosing this option here I will individually review and enable mid-rolls but I'd love to know what you're going to do for your channel Freedom Family and did you know about this automatic mid-roll feature that's happening June 27th? Tell me down there in the comments below if you heard about it and what you're going to do about it so we can all help each other grow together as a family. Now this will make you more money. Undoubtedly if you have mid-rolls in your videos you'll make more advertising revenue. The only question is will you drive some of your audience away so that in the long run your viewership won't grow as quickly as it could without mid-rolls? That's a decision you have to make for your own audience because each channel is different. If you want to enable mid-rolls on all your videos with just a few clicks go to your videos page, click this checkbox then click select all then click edit add settings and then update location of ads turn on ads during the mid-roll ad breaks during the video and then update all videos replacing any existing ad breaks and then click update that will turn all of your videos that will enable mid-rolls on all of your videos now you can also choose to only update videos without ad breaks in case you've already set some if you want to instead manually set ad breaks just open up one of your videos go to monetization and then select during video mid-roll and then select manage mid-rolls here you can choose to place automatically mid-roll ads for this one video or you can add them manually yourself it's a bit complicated and there's a lot of steps but YouTube is trying to make it easy for you to instead just do it all do it for all your videos in just a few clicks hope this helps
